Continuing from the question above. You are able to correctly modify the blood stem cells and return them to the patient, and her symptoms improve. One week after the treatment is deemed successful, the patient decides to embark on in vitro fertilization. You sequence the genome of one of the patient's egg cells (gametes). Would you expect the egg cell to have the mutant copy or a corrected, normal copy of the B-globin gene? O The wild-type copy, because you have altered original patient's germline. O The mutant copy, because you have altered the original patient's germline. O The wild-type copy, because you have NOT altered original patient's germline. O The mutant copy, because you have NOT altered original patient's germline

You would like to design a method to treat the most common mutation that causes sickle cell anemia using CRISPR/Cas. This mutation is a missense mutation that changes a glutamic acid to a valine in the beta-globin coding sequence, resulting in a non functional protein product. You remove blood stem cells from a patient and use a virus to insert which of the following sequences into the stem cells
